Hi,

I have the following code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use diagnostics;
use strict;
use warnings;
my @Files = </flows/ft*>;
foreach my $File (@Files) {
  print $File  "\n";
}

I have the following files in /flows/
r...@stats1:/flows# ls -l
total 245M
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root root  146 Oct 13 15:31 ParseNetFlow*

I get:
r...@stats1:/flows# ./ParseNetFlow
Can't use string ("/flows/ft-v05.2009-10-07.164930+") as a symbol ref while
        "strict refs" in use at ./ParseNetFlow line 9 (#1)
    (F) Only hard references are allowed by "strict refs".  Symbolic
    references are disallowed.  See perlref.

Uncaught exception from user code:
Can't use string ("/flows/ft-v05.2009-10-07.164930+") as a symbol ref while "strict refs" in use at ./ParseNetFlow line 9.
 at ./ParseNetFlow line 9


Naturally, perl doesn't like the + in the file names, but shouldn't it be seen as a string by default? Is something a mess here, or did my brain cease to work?

Thanks,
Chris.
